Patch series "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements", v4. These were made from code inspection in mm/gup.c. This patch (of 3): In __get_user_pages(), it will traverse page table and take a reference to the page the given user address corresponds to if GUP_GET or GUP_PIN is set. However, it's not supported both GUP_GET and GUP_PIN are set. Even though this check need be done, it should be done earlier, but not doing it till entering into follow_page_pte() and failed. Furthermore, this checking has been done in is_valid_gup_args() and all external users of __get_user_pages() will call is_valid_gup_args() to catch the illegal setting. We don't need to worry about internal users of __get_user_pages() because the gup_flags are set by MM code correctly. Here remove the checking in follow_page_pte(), and add VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch the possible exceptional setting just in case. And also change the VM_BUG_ON to VM_WARN_ON_ONCE() for checking (!!pages != !!(gup_flags & (FOLL_GET | FOLL_PIN))) because the checking has been done in is_valid_gup_args() for external users of __get_user_pages().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
